We know that lot of Italians, some French and many East Germans too
migrated to the South Americas aprt from the widely beleived Spanish
and Portuguese only.


Wanted to know if Messi is an Italian name..he also dosen't seem to
have any Red Indian blood and looks quiet European....Maradona was he
Italian too? Uruguay has Cavani who is clearly Italian and Forlan who
is French. There is a Vidal too in one of the South American sides and
shows that French origin players are also making their presence felt
in the Latin American sides...Suarez looks like a Red Indian but
Forlan and Cavani look perfectly European to me....most of the Spanish
origin players look mixed with Red Indian blood but the French and
italians have maintained their community identity well despite living
in Latin America for generations...

The name is, but he's clearly a mix.

Cavani is of indigenous and Italian descent
